b5_revisitedRewatch for Season 5, Eposide 21 – Objects at Rest
Recap on Dreamwidth
The Lurker’s Guide to Babylon 5
And so the tears began. This was the goodbye episode.
I cry a lot at these last episodes. I hate goodbyes and have had to say it to so many…
Anyhow –
The episode opens with John saying goodbye to Lochley and thanking her. Ta’lon comes to G’kar’s quarters, where Vir tells him that G’kar will not be returning. He lets himself in and listens to G’kar’s message, making him the Narn ambassador to B5. Franklin is telling Dr. Hobbes that she is to be the new head of medicine on B5, because she knows how all the medlabs work. Lennier shows to escort John and Delenn to Minbar and their new home. Tessa Halloran is going to run her security detail out of B5 because she will be closer to more information that way,
On Mars, Garibaldi hires a new board for Edgars Industries – the troublemakers and malcontents from before because he knows they want to make their workplace a better place and will help him do that.
Even though John and Delenn want a quiet departure, the press leaks their details and a crowd turns out to bid them goodbye. And Delenn speaks:
No Word for Goodbye:
On the way to Minbar, we have the debacle with Lennier, a bit that I never quite figured out.
Londo visits and leaves John and Delenn’s child a gift – a keeper but we never really find out a lot about that, do we?
And I cried here and there all the way through.
1. Did Lennier have this thing planned all along? Did he set John up?
2. What would Londo have told John and Delenn had John had enough alcohol for him to get drunk? (John didn’t bring any as Minbari do not drink it.)
3. How long did Lochley command B5? Was Ta’lon a good ambassador?
One final note – Zack said he’d be there until they closed the doors --- and he is as we see in the last episode.
Join us next week and I’ll tell you about crying from the first moment to the end.
